DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK
----------------------
At 200 PM PDT (2100 UTC), the center of Post-Tropical Cyclone Odalys 
was located near latitude 22.8 North, longitude 123.1 West. The 
post-tropical cyclone is moving toward the north-northeast near 6 
mph (9 km/h). The post-tropical cyclone is moving toward the 
north-northeast near 6 mph (9 km/h). A slow northeastward motion is 
expected through tonight, followed by a turn to the south or 
south-southwest.
 
Maximum sustained winds have decreased to near 45 mph (75 km/h)
with higher gusts. Continued weakening is forecast over the
next couple of days, and this system is expected to dissipate by
the middle of the week.
 
Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 90 miles (150 km)
from the center.
 
The estimated minimum central pressure is 1000 mb (29.53 inches).
 
 
HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
----------------------
None.

Post-Tropical Cyclone Odalys Discussion Number  32
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL       EP162026
200 PM PDT Sun Sep 27 2026
 
Odalys has lacked organized deep convection for about 12 hours, and 
the system has been a swirl of low-level clouds all day. Therefore, 
Odalys no longer meets the criteria of a tropical cyclone, and this 
is the last advisory on this system. A recent ASCAT-B pass from a 
few hours ago showed peak winds between 35 and 40 kt, and based on 
that data, the initial wind speed is lowered to 40 kt.
 
Strong wind shear, dry air, and cool waters should cause continued
weakening while the system turns southward or south-southwestward
in the low-level flow. Dissipation is now shown by 72 hours, in
agreement with all of the global model guidance.
 
Distant moisture from both Odalys and Hurricane Polo will be
transported into the southwestern United States during the next few
days, and may indirectly contribute to a heavy rainfall and flash
flooding in the region. See products issued by the Weather
Prediction Center for more information.

Transit counts are gate-line crossings computed hourly from ChartNav's own live AIS network (terrestrial receivers; coverage varies by zone — the coverage figure above says how complete the picture is, and reporting gaps are only flagged for vessels that were underway and stopped reporting globally). Baselines are rolling medians of complete days. Numbers may differ from weekly satellite-AIS datasets such as IMF PortWatch, which lag by several days but see areas terrestrial receivers cannot.
